Now categories work as they do in the PC program MapSource--that is they're an attribute of waypoints/favorites. Yes one cannot display waypoints/favorites in a category (as is possible in MapSouce) but I suspect that is coming. Can you sort search or sort waypoints by personalized categories (ie not the drop down categories) on a Windows OS? Thanks in advance for the help? Robert

You can't search by category in BaseCamp. BaseCamp allows you to assign categories to your waypoints so that when you transfer them to your GPS they will be organized by category.
